USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
Alvarado serves as a major transportation junction in Johnson County, where the crossing of the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe and the Missouri Kansas Texas railroads anchored the town's growth. This 1961 field-checked survey reveals a landscape of small rural communities and family landmarks, such as Pleasant Point and the Happy Hill settlement. The town core includes the Geo Washington Carver school and Glenwood Cemetery, while the surrounding prairie is dotted with country houses of worship like Willow Springs Ch and Cahill Ch.
